I must have been on the nice list.

A G5 MTB, a Sea Harrier and Vol one of British and Commonwealth Warship Camouflage,



Best wishes for 2016

Hi Simon,
Looks like you were a really good boy!

Great kits to keep you busy and at the speed you build, bet
you'll have a least one finished by New Years Day.

Just kidding...best wishes for the New Year,

Cheers,
Joe

Nice looking haul there Si! Cool bid on the 1/4 scale Harrier! Enjoy!!


Fred...LOL....coal! I'm sure you will put that to good use!

I didn't receive anything modelling related actually. All good though, I was fortunate to get the gift of a little extra cash which in then can be used for modelling related items!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years fellas!

Nice scale coal Fred, do you have a project in mind for the coal?

Thanks Todd,

Very nice collection Si.

For me, I have to play my own Santa when it comes to modelling. I did order some stuff from far off places but none arrived to put under the tree. Hopefully they will come soon

cheers

I got some cash which has the Trumpeter USS New York
headed my way. Squadron had a good sale. I love the look of the dreadnought ships in WW2.

Some good stuff for your hobby, mates
Santa was kind and not only him. Santa presented me a certain small envelope with some money in. This will bring me Dragons Schlachtschiff Scharnhorst.
Tamiya U.S.S New Jersey in 1/350 knocked on my door this morning
( actually the post man )
Got Academys U.S.S Indianapolis Deluxe Set incl. the japanese submarine and Academys H.M.S Warspite ( standart kit ) for bargain prices and some reference from Kagero for Warspite and Missouri
This should keep me a while busy.

Cheers

Si,

Very nice haul.

Simon, as everyone said, I am sure you will make that coal come to good use.

As for me, Santa was good and added to the IJN Fleet with the Light Cruiser IJN Yahagi "Leyte Gulf" version along with an Amazon Gift car that went towards purchasing reference material. So far only three have arrived but the others are on the way.
